Are there any disadvantages in using the Tempur-pedic mattress?
While quality, endurance, pressure point relief, and a good night’s sleep are all tremendous benefits of using this mattress, there are other economic and care concerns that consumers should note: • The specialized material and the density of the mattress means additional cost. The cost of the entry-level mattress begins in the high $2000s. • Since the mattress has a set price, there really are no additional discounts besides merchandise incentives. • Some consumers have reported a funny plastic smell that comes with a new mattress, although the smell eventually disappears. • Some consumers report that the mattress is much firmer than first originally thought. Again, this disappears with increasing use. • The mattress requires specialized care for spills and stains.
